[QUOTE="Volatility_rivals135605, post: 131567023, member: 1476288"] The only way I would consider adding Doc, would be strictly as an analyst, not an on-the-field coach... Someone who can offer a different perspective within the analytics, and possibly leverage some recruiting relationships, however that would just be a secondary role. Marshall was not doing well when Doc was hired, the previous coach did not recruit very well at all, and out of his 10 seasons, he only had 3 losing seasons, I would say Marshall was an above average team, 8-9 wins was about the norm, so I do think he could bring value to the program AS AN ANALYST... That said, if Brown would add an analyst to the program, id much rather him hire an actual data scientist who can extract far more value from opponent data/patterns/analytics. Someone who can develop a proprietary genetic optimization & predictive analytics via deep learning models. A predictive interface that can be used pre-game scheming & real-time "Next Play" prediction probabilities. This would bring more value then simply adding another coach/ex-player... Its commonplace for coaches to carry smart-pads/tablets on the sideline, you could design a Real-Time "Next Play" prediction probability map that coach could view before calling the next play. Real-time game data could be feed into a high-end VPS for the genetic optimizations & machine learning analytics, then link the smart-pad to the VPS to be viewed on the sideline. This would add more value to coaches, and would probably cost approx $120k-$150k per year, unless they leveraged WVU's data science dept and allowed Doctorate/Master students to work on this project as part of a class project, in which case it wouldnt cost but approx $2-3K per year for a decent VPS. However I would imagine WVU already has some quality servers specifically for high-end computation intensive projects.. Any rate, should Doc come to Morgantown, it should only be a "supportive role"... Id rather choose someone a little younger, someone experienced, bright, creative, and can connect well with HS coaches & players... Someone who can help opponent analytics, concepts & scheme, & pitch in on recruiting when possible. Im curious if Jeff Casteel will move back to an analyst role and we will hire another LB coach...
